The video provides an in-depth look at the upcoming Tesla Model 3 'Project Highland' refresh, detailing significant interior and exterior ch... moreanges.

This video delves into a highly anticipated set of eight new software features slated for release across Tesla's vehicle lineup, including the Mo... moredel 3 and Model Y. The reviewer highlights a potential UI overhaul, drawing parallels to a previously tested, more modular design, and expresses a desire for this enhanced customization to trickle down to the Model 3 and Y. Key features discussed include Reverse Smart Summon, an upgraded Boombox functionality with remote control, and significant audio improvements with potential Dolby Atmos support. The video also touches upon the expected debut of a 360-degree camera view with Hardware 4, the potential use of the interior camera to eliminate the autopilot nag, and the long-rumored Tesla App Store, positioned as a direct competitor to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Connectivity upgrades like 5G and Starlink integration, along with the addition of third-party charging stations to the navigation, are also explored. While the reviewer is optimistic about many of these updates, particularly the App Store and UI enhancements, they express caution regarding the practical usability of Reverse Smart Summon in crowded areas. less
Tesla's Huge Announcement - Owners Are Furious! | Tesla Model 3 + Model Y
The video discusses significant recent Tesla announcements, sparking owner frustration. Key points include price increases, feature removals, and Rivi... morean's adoption of Tesla's NACS charging standard, which raises concerns about Supercharger congestion.

The video highlights substantial discounts and incentives for the Model 3, making it an attractive purchase before the anticipated 'Highland' refresh, with similar interior updates potentially coming to the Model Y. However, the Model Y sees a price increase and the removal of white seat options. The acquisition of 'A Better Routeplanner' by Rivian is also noted as a potential blow to Tesla owners. The reviewer concludes that while the Model 3 discounts are compelling, waiting for the new model might be prudent for some. less

This review delves into the Tesla Model 3 RWD, highlighting its current affordability due to significant discounts and incentives, potentially bringin... moreg the price down to around $30,000 after federal and state rebates. The reviewer praises the car for offering the same interior, screen, software, and camera hardware as its more expensive Long Range and Performance counterparts, making it feel like a higher-end vehicle. However, the review also points out notable cost-cutting measures in the base model, such as the absence of floor mats, standard sound system (lacking a subwoofer and dedicated amplifier), and no fog lights. A significant con is the impending release of a refreshed Model 3 with substantial design and feature updates, making the current model's purchase timing questionable. Hidden costs like a $250 non-refundable order fee, a $10/month premium connectivity subscription (though bypassable with a phone hotspot), and insurance premiums (around $170/month in Southern California) are also discussed. Home charging installation and electricity costs are presented as generally cheaper than gasoline, with the reviewer sharing personal charging expenses. less
New Tesla Leaks Again! - 10 Amazing New Features | Tesla Model 3 + Model Y

The reviewer highlights the potential for new features like remote Boombox control, a 'self-park standby mode' (reverse smart summon), and live camera previews within the Tesla app. A major point of discussion is GM's adoption of Tesla's NACS charging standard, mirroring Ford's move, which offers GM access to Tesla's Supercharger network but may lead to increased congestion for Tesla owners.

The reviewer highlights ten significant changes, including a sleeker exterior design with new headlights and taillights, a powered frunk, and the integration of Hardware 4 for improved cameras and potentially better autonomous driving features. Inside, the most notable rumored changes are the removal of physical stalks in favor of capacitive buttons on the steering wheel and the potential addition of a second display for rear passengers.

A key focus is the dilemma of whether to buy now and take advantage of current discounts and incentives or wait for the updated models, which are expected to be more expensive. The reviewer suggests the Model 3 refresh could arrive between July and September 2023, while the Model Y update might be delayed until Fall 2024. Ultimately, the decision hinges on balancing current savings against future technology and design. less
Massive Update - CarPlay Is Here! Tesla Model 3 + Model Y
This video demonstrates a clever workaround to bring full wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality to Tesla vehicles, addressing a key li... moremitation of Tesla's native infotainment system. The reviewer highlights that while Tesla's built-in apps are good, they pale in comparison to the vast ecosystem of third-party applications available through CarPlay and Android Auto, particularly for media streaming, navigation, and audiobooks. The primary solution presented is the "T2C Carplay Box" from Carlinkit, lauded for its plug-and-play simplicity, though the reviewer notes it's not perfect and may require a software update. The process involves connecting the box to the car's power and then using the phone's hotspot or Bluetooth for internet connectivity to access a specific web address within the Tesla browser. The reviewer emphasizes that this method allows access to apps like Waze, Audible, and PlugShare, which are not natively supported or as robust in Tesla's system. While acknowledging that the experience isn't as seamless as a native app, the reviewer concludes it's the best plug-and-play solution currently available for enhancing a Tesla's infotainment capabilities. less

After 18 months of ownership, the reviewer finds the Tesla Model Y to be a compelling, versatile vehicle, particularly highlighting its spacious inter... moreior, practical storage solutions (including the frunk and sub-trunk), and the attractive red paint option. The reviewer notes significant price drops since purchase, making it a better value proposition now, especially with potential federal tax incentives. However, they express regret over choosing the black interior over white and mention that the standard range model, while cheaper, is a viable option for many due to its respectable range and lower cost. A major point of discussion is the impending refresh, rumored for Fall 2024, which could bring significant updates like a stockless interior and updated styling, leading to a "buy now or wait" dilemma. The reviewer ultimately loves their Model Y for its versatility and value but acknowledges the appeal of waiting for the refreshed model if not in immediate need. less

Huge Announcement! New Secret Discount for Tesla Model 3 and Model Y
The video discusses significant updates and potential shifts in Tesla's Model 3 and Model Y lineup. A key focus is the reintroduction of the Mode... morel 3 Long Range in the US, which now starts at $47,240. However, this new iteration is noted to have a reduced estimated range (325+ miles, down from 358) and likely uses an LFP battery, disqualifying it for the full $7,500 federal tax credit, only qualifying for $3,750. This raises questions about whether it's the current design or the upcoming 'Project Highland' refresh. The reviewer also highlights Tesla's recent price increases across Model 3 and Model Y, countered by a "secret discount" on existing inventory vehicles, which bypasses the $250 price hike and may qualify for the full tax credit. Additionally, the video touches on Tesla's lease loophole for tax incentives, a potential free FSD trial for owners, and concerns about used mobile connector kits being sold as new.

Conversely, the arguments for buying now center on current attractive price cuts, substantial federal tax incentives that may change, and the immediate benefits of switching to an EV. The reviewer acknowledges that while the current models are excellent, the upcoming refresh represents the "latest and greatest" from Tesla, potentially offering better long-term value and future-proofing, though also warns of potential feature removals or controversial design choices like the stockless steering wheel. less

Controversially, there are allegations of Tesla reselling used mobile chargers as new, with advice to return suspect items or purchase locally. In product news, a lower-cost, rear-wheel-drive Standard Range Model Y, imported from China, is launching in Canada, distinct from the US version. This Canadian model offers significant cost savings but has less range and power than the dual-motor variant. The video speculates this RWD model won't come to the US due to federal incentive requirements favoring US-made components. Price adjustments are noted for Model S and Model X, with a $2,500 increase and the Yoke steering wheel now costing an extra $250. However, new Model S and X buyers receive three years of free unlimited Supercharging. A bug has also granted some existing owners free Supercharging, though this is not an official offering.

Finally, the Cybertruck delivery event is tentatively slated for Q3, with the Model 3 'Project Highland' refresh also expected around the same time. less
